30 September 2003 - Apache Ant 1.6beta1 Available
The Apache Ant team is proud to announce the first beta of Ant 1.6. It is now now available for download. As we've already said in the announcements of Ant 1.5.4, this release requires JDK 1.2 or later to run.
We encourage user to give this beta a release a try and report any bugs found so that we get a chance to fix them before we make the final release of Ant 1.6.
Ant 1.6 adds a lot of new features, most prominently support for XML namespaces as well as a new concept of Ant libraries that makes use of namespaces to avoid name clashes of custom tasks. For a longer list of fixed bugs and new features see the release notes.

Apache Ant is a Java-based build tool. In theory, it is kind of like Make, but without Make's wrinkles.
